ThirtyTwo Permanent Vacation Carbon vs ThirtyTwo Women's Crucible

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the ThirtyTwo Women's Crucible leans more freestyle. They share a directional twin shape — mostly twin with a slight directional bias—versatile for all-mountain and some switch. Both feature hybrid (camber/rocker) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The ThirtyTwo Permanent Vacation Carbon is noticeably stiffer at 9/10 versus the ThirtyTwo Women's Crucible's 5/10, suiting more aggressive riding. At $449.95 vs $629.95 MSRP, the ThirtyTwo Women's Crucible is the more budget-friendly option.
